IDK I need to play it for real because it looks like I need to stay alive for close to 20 turns to win with this. It seems like Im getting too much mana and not enough destruction.

If I play this legacy I drop the two mox black lotus and sol ring then add in 3 more lotus petals and another land.

I like the idea but there are better cards than Searing Spear , Shock , and Thought Scour . Also, Elite Arcanist sucks, if you want that ability then look at Isochron Scepter , but even then it's meh in legacy.
Spell Pierce , Brainstorm , Ponder , Force of Will , and Daze are all really good, super cheap legacy spells that would work well in here.

Yes the elite arcanist has no place in this deck. I havent looked at this in awhile and Im not sure why I put them in there. I think maybe just to have a counterspell on standby but not really worth the cost. Isochron scepter is awesome in his place. I definitely like ponder in place of thought scour cause that card is weak too. well maybe after a few changes i can get a few upvotes. Kinda disappointing to have so many great cards in a deck that nobody likes. It is still my personal favorite probably just for nostalgic reasons I guess.
